It's Christmas again, the kids are so very excited. I am as well. We have been celebrating the Advent season, the anticipation of the arrival of Christ. It has been great for my family to do. I recently watched a video by comedian Michael Jr. It was a parody of sorts titled, "Mark's Birthday." The video hit home and I hope you get a chance to watch it. All kinds of people worked hard to prepare for Mark's birthday, and came with gifts and had tons of food to celebrate Mark's birthday. Their houses were thoroughly decorated and they whole town was filled with the excitement of Mark's birthday. When Mark's birthday came, everyone celebrated and had a great time. It was a grand time. However, Mark was left out of his own party. Even though everyone gathered around to celebrate Mark, Mark wasn't there.
It's a metaphor for Christmas. The season is to celebrate Christ's arrival on earth. The creator of the cosmos, star breather, life giver and Savior arrived on earth and we should celebrate that day. He's the hope of the world, the only hope. Let's not forget to invite Him to our celebrations and include Him in our celebrations this Christmas season.
Merry Christmas everyone!
